1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King

Chapter 128 - 128 Circus and Crown

128 Circus and Crown

After the Twilight Wall completely collapsed, the scene returned to Black Crow Gaze.

However, because of the death of its original owner, the entire huge Moon Realm domain was slowly crumbling.

If no one continued maintaining it, this place would probably turn into a Moon Realm storm and completely dissipate.

William and the four Void Sovereigns were on a triangular island reef in the middle of Black Crow Gaze. The lights on the lighthouse not far away had extinguished.

“You’re late.”

William held the Seed of Hope in his hand and added, “Just like before.”

“It’s not too late,” the Whispering Empress—who wore a pitch-black crown and whose face was covered by a black veil—said softly.

“You won’t have the chance to pull those old tricks this time.”

The entire Black Crow Gaze was completely sealed off, and the Twilight Fortress was stranded inside.

William had to face the four Void Sovereigns’ main bodies at the same time. Moreover, he didn’t even have the corresponding Judgment equipment.

As he had kept his HP low to fight Coles, he could at most maintain this extreme status for another two minutes.

The current situation could probably be described as ‘doomed.’

However, William looked calm. He even took off the Progenitor Vampire Crown on his head and exited the extreme damage state he was maintaining.

“Calamity, it’s too late to beg for mercy,” the Pale Poet with a noose around his neck said.

William nodded and said, “Yes, you can kill me now. Then?”

“Then, we’ll forever have one less problem in Currere,” the filthy Lord of the Dark Tide replied.

“At the same time, the 14th Void Sovereign, the King of Hope and Despair, can’t be born,” William shrugged and said.

“The person you placed your bets on has just been wiped out completely. As for the authority to control the entire Black Crow Gaze, there’s only one soul fragment of the Father of the Crows left. If I don’t take the initiative to maintain the existence of this Moon Realm domain, this place will immediately turn into a huge Moon Realm storm and completely dissipate.”

Black Crow Gaze was formed from the Curse of Despair. If it dissipated like this, who knew when the next Curse of Despair would condense in the Moon Realm?

“That might be a long time for you, but to us, it’s akin to just waiting for a fruit to rot,” the Lady of Starvation said slowly.

“Then, this is a simple choice. You can kill me now. This way, you can eliminate the Moon Realm Calamity and wait for the next opportunity. Or, you can choose not to kill me. This way, you can also eliminate the Moon Realm Calamity and obtain a new Void Sovereign as your ally,” William replied.

“You? You choose to become a Void Sovereign?”

The Whispering Empress laughed as if She had heard a joke.

Then, in the next moment, She appeared in front of William. Her slender hands reached for the collar of William’s robe, and the six eyes behind the black veil lit up with red light.

“What are you planning?” the Whispering Empress, Beatrice, asked in a hoarse growl.

The black skull ring on William’s left middle finger instantly emitted light. A shadow wearing a pitch-black robe and whose face was hidden behind a hood appeared behind William. His thin hands stopped Beatrice’s next move.

Guardian of the Dead, one of the Seven Holy Spirit Rings.

“Under such circumstances, what else do you think I can do?” William replied.

The entire Black Crow Gaze was sealed off, and the Finality scene bound to the Twilight Fortress had been shattered by the four Void Sovereigns. He was like a turtle in a jar with no chance of escape.

However, William’s words didn’t convince Beatrice. She didn’t stop what She was doing. Instead, She pried open the hand of the shadow protecting William bit by bit, and fine cracks appeared on the skull ring on William’s hand.

However, a pale hand landed on Beatrice’s shoulder, stopping Her next move.

“Let’s listen to his specific conditions first.”

The Pale Poet, Pock, appeared behind Beatrice.

“After all, he can’t escape.”

Seeing Beatrice stop, William rubbed the Guardian of the Dead ring on his left middle finger and vaguely made a middle finger gesture at Her. Then, he said, “There are no conditions. As long as you let me enter the lighthouse and continue the unfinished ritual, I will become your ally after my ascension is completed. It’s that simple.”

“Do you think I’ll believe that you’re so kind?”

Beatrice sneered.

“If you refuse and don’t give me a way out, I’ll destroy the last soul fragment and the Seed of Hope before I die. The Curse of Despair might appear in the Moon Realm in the future, but under your rule, this Seed of Hope will probably be the last one,” William spread his hands and said frankly.

Then, he looked at the gradually collapsing sky in the distance and continued, “Moreover, this is only a suggestion. If you really can’t accept it, I can only choose another ally cautiously.”

As if to confirm William’s words, cheerful and noisy music suddenly sounded from the sky.

There was also a burst of crazy laughter.

A gorgeous float pulled by a bear and an elephant was flying over from the horizon.

A few wisps of smoke of different colors dragged behind the float. As the float flew, the smoke spelled out the words “Valk Circus.”

Unfortunately, before the last few letters could be spelled out, the entire float fell into a huge invisible spiderweb like a wasp, and the crazy laughter stopped abruptly.

“I swear that from now on, the entire theater will focus on cleaning up any buildup of spiderwebs. Yes… The specific measure is to use fireworks.”

After a while, a depressed voice sounded from the front seat of the float.

With that said, all kinds of fireworks extended from the windows of the float.

Then, the entire sky began to bloom with colorful fireworks.

After the fireworks exploded, they turned into all kinds of animals that scurried in the sky, burning the spider silk to ashes.

The float broke free and circled the sky a few more times before heading straight for the island reef.

The vehicle screeched to a halt beside the lighthouse. The elephant and bear pulling the carriage very consciously untied their reins and walked to the door to open it for their master.

A clown wearing a convoluted and gorgeous costume walked out of the car. His face looked gorgeous but also a little terrifying—Absurdity Jester Valk.

Valk opened with a puzzling line. He counted the people present and asked, “So there are five clowns now? Or six?”

“There’s no need for a clown to liven up the atmosphere today,” Beatrice looked at Him and whispered.

“No, no, no. Believe me, there’s no lack of clowns here today.”

As Valk spoke, he straightened his clothes and said, “First, there’s me…”

“Anyone can tell,” Beatrice mocked.

Valk ignored Her and continued, “I actually believed the time described by your eyeball; it made me come a few minutes late and miss the most exciting show.”

As He spoke, He sniffled a few times and looked at William.

“Ah, the smell of ashes and dust. So you burned that Crowman to death in the end?”

William nodded subconsciously.

Yes, the graphics were considered passable, but the creativity was slightly lacking. This play was a little monotonous when added to The Destruction of Judgment.

William couldn’t help but roll his eyes. The play wasn’t over…

Fortunately, he didn’t include Valk and Zamara’s help in his combat strength during his planning. From Her description, the Whispering Empress seemed to have used some method to delay Valk’s arrival, and Zamara didn’t come at all.

“Then, since I didn’t finish watching the show, I can only ask the person involved to return to the theater with me and recount this scene verbally,” Valk looked at William and said.

William instantly understood what the other party meant. He wanted to take the opportunity to bring him out.

Although he and Valk couldn’t defeat the four Void Sovereigns together, as long as he had His help, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to escape Black Crow Gaze.

Upon hearing this, the four Void Sovereigns instantly became on guard.

“Valk, I advise you not to do this…” the Lord of the Dark Tide said.

Valk ignored Him and looked at William.

William shook his head and said, “No, the matters regarding my two subordinates have to be resolved here today.”

Valk said thoughtfully, “Oh… That’s five clowns. Not bad. Thankfully, I brought the crown with me today.”

As He spoke, He took out a crooked crown from his convoluted clown costume.

“Beggar’s Crown, dedicated to the most foolish person on April Fool’s Day.”
